Wendy’s Chili Finger Case Resolved!

Thanks to one of Thunder-Thumbs’ award-winning reporters (“Pinkies”), we have found the resolution of the Wendy’s finger-in-chili case:

Couple plead guilty in chili finger case

The Las Vegas couple accused of planting a human finger in a bowl of Wendy’s chili pleaded guilty Friday in a San Jose courtroom to all of the charges against them.

Anna Ayala, 39, and Jaime Placencia, 43, faced charges of felony conspiracy and attempted grand theft in connection with the March 22 incident in which Ayala claimed to have bitten into the fingertip while eating chili with her in-laws at a San Jose Wendy’s.

If given the maximum sentence on Nov. 2, Ayala could face nine years and eight months in state prison, while Placencia faces 13 years. Santa Clara County Superior County Judge Edward Davila also told the couple they could be sentenced to probation.
